EditThe Aeronauts (2019)

it is 1862 and two people are about to change history with their discoveries. Amelia Wren ((Felicity Jones) is a young widow with lots of money and young scientist James Glaisher (Eddie Redmayne) has a vision about how to predict weather conditions. Although no other scientist takes Glaisher seriously, he finally finds an ally in the face of Amelia. Together, they use a hot air balloon with a very ambitious goal - to fly to the highest highs no human being has reached before. There, at the edge of physical existence, Amelia and James make surmising discoveries about themselves and about their purpose in science of climate. “The Aeronauts” story is based on a flight performed on the September 5, 1862, by the British aeronauts James Glaisher and Henry Coxwell. They managed to reach an altitude of about 11,887 m (38,999 ft) with their balloon, with which broke the world flight altitude record at that time.
